Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain Sophia and Althea both are hormone replacement therapy and helps in equalizing the hormones and when the hormones are in normal range it can improve the skin as well as resolves pimples..
I would however suggest you to consult Gynaecologist and get evaluated and switching the pills can be done only after a proper advise and investigations like Blood tests..
Along with it in case of pimples you can wash your face with Salicylic acid and glycolic acid containing facewash..
You can also apply benzoyl peroxide and clindamycin containing creams..
Take multivitamin supplements..
Exfoliate your skin twice a week to unclog the pores..
Drink plenty of water and take more of green leafy vegetables and fruits..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
